Hey y'all, I finally hit 20K, so I think it's time for an updated bio thread. My name is Matt Nightingale, and I'm a gay Christian pastor, writer, @TEDx speaker, spiritual director and musician from San Francisco's North Bay Area. 🧵

Just got back from family game night up in Santa Rosa. My daughter @emzynight is moving to the LA area for grad school. We're gonna miss her so much. Tomorrow she's stopping by Novato at 6am for breakfast on her way out of town and then she'll be gone till Thanksgiving. Wild.

Kids and I were laughing about Sonoma County restaurant names the other night... You can literally just choose two nouns and join them with an ampersand. Barrel & Bone Candle & Clock Fig & Whisper Bag & Bonnet If you want to get bougie, you can add "the." Girl & The Cellar
I don’t think I’ve shared this here yet: Alejandro found a good full-time job! He’s a production planning manager at a medical manufacturing company in the East Bay. Long commute, but worth it. Good salary and benefits. Managing 4 people. We’re so very grateful. ❤️
July 15: Q: "Specifically, did she [Bondi] tell you at all that your name appeared in the files?" Trump: "No, no." Today, WSJ: "In May, Bondi and her deputy informed the president at a meeting in the White House that his name was in the Epstein files." wsj.com/politics/justi…
This is now officially a massive scandal with a coverup that includes the President, the Attorney General, the FBI Director, and the GOP Congress
